Re: Turkey tail extract question [Re: Forrester]

My dried turkey tails end up so damn spongy that my grain mill just jams up on them. I say screw it and boil the bastards because it's way easier than cranking my mill and having to go through and clean off the plates and grind more, etc.

What I've been doing is putting the reishi, turkey tails and artist conk I find cut in small pieces and toss it in a gallon jar of everclear. I haven't drank the blackish liquid yet,  but I do take the pieces out and boil them into tea, which I do drink, especially if I have a cold or feel one coming on. Works great for that!

Wish I could do a beer extraction because I hate everclear.

I put mine in a blender. What comes out is not a foster though. More like a thick fluff. Think a denser thicker cattail fuzz.

When I run them through my coffee grinder I'm still left with a lot of chunks and a ton of fuzzy/cotton-like matter.  Maybe the cell walls are broken down at that point, maybe not.  I'm sure you'll get something out of them but will you get the most you could if you used alcohol/heat?  Probably not.





Yes a coffee grinder works quite well enough, if you're going to use alcohol and/or heat after that.  I use one for all the mushrooms I extract, a cheap-o walmart one too, it was like $10.

Have some medicinal mushrooms and want to get the most out of them?  Try this double extraction method.
